This is the fourth volume in a comprehensive series containing details of every locomotive to be built for Germany’s railways. This volume covers steam locomotives of Classes 60 to 91.
Locomotives in the 60 to 79 series were tank locomotives built for passenger train use, while Classes 80 to 91 comprised other tank locomotives built for freight services and shunting duties. The book also describes in detail the many different locomotive types built for private railways, which were nationalised in 1950 in the GDR, and were largely designated as Class 89.
A brief description of every class of locomotive is included, accompanied by tabulated technical specifications and black & white photographs. These introductions are followed by complete listings of every locomotive built, including the following details:
- Builder and date of construction
- Works number
- Original owner and subsequent transfers of ownership
- Allocated running number and subsequent renumberings
- Date of withdrawal
